Married liveaboard sailors: quiet, caring and reliable

About Gregory & Lucie

We are a married couple who for the last three years have been living aboard a sailboat in Florida and the Bahamas. During the "hurricane season" we would store the boat and go travelling. In August of 2018 we sold our boat and are now land-based until the next boat comes along. We met in India and have travelled extensively together. We are qui...

We are a married couple who for the last three years have been living aboard a sailboat in Florida and the Bahamas. During the "hurricane season" we would store the boat and go travelling. In August of 2018 we sold our boat and are now land-based until the next boat comes along. We met in India and have travelled extensively together. We are quiet, responsible animal lovers. Lucie is a new Canadian, having just immigrated from France. Gregory is Canadian who was born and raised in South Africa. There are many things about life on land that we have missed and we often talk about buying a farm and raising alpaca. But until that dream comes true, we want to keep travelling, connecting with new places, people and animals.As sailors we understand the importance of keeping the home ship-shape and attending to even minor tasks immediately. We are clean, quiet, caring and courteous.We are also vegetarian and will not cook meat in your house, nor are we smokers and rarely do we drink alcohol.We have pet-sat in Ecuador, Florida, Quebec and Ontario. By house and pet-sitting we'll be able to experience some different areas as we decide where to settle, if we decide to settle anywhere at all. Anyone have a camper van for sale?

Why we want to house sit

We are home-bodies and animal lovers, but our current mobile lifestyle keeps us from enjoying that part of what we love. By pet and house-sitting we can spend time in one place and reconnect with the land and enjoy the company of animals as we love to do.

Our experience

In the last year we have completed 14 house and pet sits (8 through this site). Gregory has volunteered with local animal shelters in Canada. Lucie and her mother have managed a flock of 15 chickens. We have both grown up with pets - dogs, cats, birds and fish. As a freelance physiotherapist in France, Lucie has taken charge of other physiotherapist's businesses while they are on holiday, staying in their house and often caring for their pets and gardens.For us, the pets are the #1 priority. We will shower them with attention and make sure they have everything they need to be happy and healthy. Additionally, we will take the utmost care of your home - cleaning, being careful and respectful with your appliances etc, and taking care of any gardening that's required.
